Good place to live, if you can afford it

June 19, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com

It’s no secret that Charleston housing has gone up quite a bit in pricing over the past few years. As a student, Quarterdeck is definitely on the upper end of what I feel comfortable paying, but I have yet to find any properties that are cheaper without sacrificing privacy or quality of the complex. The 2-bedroom apartments are a comfortable size and the screened-in porch is a very nice feature. Maintenance and pest control requests are always completed promptly. I have an ESA and the staff was ...

very helpful with getting that accommodation in place. While the property is technically in a flood zone (as is all of James island), I have never had issues with flooding, even during hurricane Ian.

I have lived here 3 months. I find it quiet and very well maintained. I find the office staff and the maintenance staff extremely receptive and responsive. I definitely recommend living here

April 7, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com

I would not recommend Quarterdeck of James Island to anyone as Andrea and the staff will not work with you on any incident that may occur and will not even contact you to hear your side of the story. It is severely overpriced for low running water in the bath and sinks...it’s ridiculous. You pay high prices for electricity and there isn’t a lot of light in the rooms. Also, the trash compactor is broken half the time and the trash smells up the area where I live at in Quarterdeck. There is dog ...

poop everywhere and have stepped in it multiple times as well as dogs not walking on a leash...and have almost hit a dog before!

May 6, 2019 - Review from Apartments.com

We are very satisfied with: location; best floor plan for 2 bedroom by far; staff pleasant to work with; Concerns: being an older building sound from apartment above can be bad; the landscaping around the residences can not compare with the plantings and care of the clubhouse area; need more attention beyond once a week to keep grounds clean
